Gary Fisher HKEK What year?
Hi, I am new to this forum and would appreciate any help.
Can you tell me what year this bike is and what it came standard with?
I've just acquired a Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo bike that needs a bit of work.
The first thing I am trying to do is identify it.. i.e., the year, etc.
I have a serial no and found a decal that says:
Designed in California
by Gary Fisher
Made in USA
Triple Butted
Tru Temper OS
Cro-Mo Tubing
BS 6102:1
The serial No is 900323
The color is a medium metallic green..
Maybe an emerald green?
I believe that if I could find the year, I could identify the bike..
As I bring it back to life, knowing how it started out would be a great deal of help..
Thanks for any help

Bicycle blue book shows that material was used from '95-'98 Bicycle Value Guide. Cross-referencing with BikePedia, I'd say '96 (because it's green)- 1996 Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo - BikePedia. However, one source says "triple butted", the other "double butted"...

Hey Thanks..
Looks like 1995 was triple-butted as was 1997.. So double-butted must be an error.
And in googling the Matte P.C. green color... looks right
Appreciate the help..
PS Looks like Trek started building Gary Fisher bikes in 1993 or so..
Thanks!
